Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).

Inventory in DeKalb County tightened in May, with 135 active listings, slightly below last year. New listings fell more than 20 percent year over year, even as pending sales jumped nearly 36 percent. Combined with just 1.3 months of supply, well under the 2.5 months seen across Indiana, homes on the market are facing steady buyer demand.

Prices are responding to this imbalance. The typical home value climbed almost 15 percent from a year ago, while the median list price rose about 8 percent. Homes are taking longer to sell than last year, with median days on market up sharply to 22 days, but that is still a relatively quick timeline for buyers who are prepared.

Recent monthly shifts show activity heating up into late spring. Compared with April, homes sold surged by more than half and pending sales also increased, while days on market dropped notably as more than half of listings went under contract within two weeks. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list price pulled back to about 20 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio hovered near 98 percent, indicating sellers still have pricing power but buyers are negotiating a bit more room. To navigate these mixed signals, both buyers and sellers in DeKalb County can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local real estate agent.

“We've now worked with Rachel multiple times—she helped us sell a home in the past and recently purchase an investment property—and I truly can't recommend her enough. Rachel is incredibly responsive, works fast, and consistently goes above and beyond for her clients. Real estate transactions can be stressful, but she makes the entire process feel seamless by staying on top of every detail and keeping communication clear every step of the way. What I appreciate most is that she genuinely cares. She advocates for her clients, is proactive instead of reactive, and always makes you feel like you're her top priority. Whether you're buying your first home, selling, or investing in real estate, Rachel is the kind of realtor you want in your corner. We will absolutely continue using her for future transactions.”

“Finding a home/property can be a stressful journey, but having Debra Hull by our side was a game-changer. What truly stood out was how much Debra cared about our family's well-being and finding us the right property. Debra always took the time to listen to our needs (even when we were just having sidebar conversation), addressed every concern with patience, incredibly attentive to the little details we wanted in a home/property and responded to our texts and calls almost instantly, no matter the time. We never felt pressured; instead, she treated us with such care and compassion that it felt like we were working with a trusted friend. If you want a realtor who goes above and beyond, look no further!”

“None better!!! This was a long distance move so all transactions were between Patty and myself in Alaska. Without having to step foot in any of the properties, she helped my family members go through the homes under consideration and it was completly flawless on her part. Should I need another realtor she will be the one I trust and call. Thank you again Patty”

“Shelley knows her stuff and is so helpful at explaining every step of the process. She gave sound advice and worked to get us internet at the house when there was a hiccup with the internet company. She called and got us set up with a temporary solution and petitioned for them to come earlier than they initially said. Additionally, she and Jim are just very kind people and a joy to work with. We can't recommend them enough.”

She is thourough and honest and has so many connections to other helpful people from inspectors to mortgage lenders. She has real opinions but also keeps things positive, which is so helpful when so many things are needed to be considered when buying a house. Lisa has helped us sell a house and now buy a house and I would strongly recommend her to everyone.”

“I was really happy with Brandi Oaks, for being in a situation of losing my mom in February and I was selling her house since it was left to me I was told about Brandi met with her went over everything very efficient. Very nice person to work with and she knew what she was doing. She helped me in many ways I felt so comfortable around her working with her getting things done how to do it and that was very helpful because I didn't know nothing about selling a house. I bought one but never sold one all in all Brandi can sell a house of mine anytime but I live out of state, but I definitely would recommend her to anybody. Want to sell a house because Brandi is really good. I was very very pleased. Thank you!!!”

“There is not enough space to give Amy the credit she deserves. When we bought our first home, we had minimal communication with our prior realtor and so many questions and unknowns when starting the buying process again. Amy answered every call, text and random question with full transparency. When going to different houses, Amy never pressured to buy and would point out possible things to consider. Having her support and guidance throughout this buying/selling process was amazing and we are so grateful!”
